| 表面の説明 | Intaglio-printed note in black and grey with a red guilloche underprint at centre. At left, a seated male figure interpreted as Neptune or a river god rests against a trident, while at right a group of allegorical female figures — possibly mermaids or sea nymphs — and a standing male figure with a caduceus fill the vignette in finely engraved detail. The denomination "20" appears in large red numerals at lower centre over the red underprint, flanked by "XX" counters in the lower corners, with two red serial numbers printed horizontally across the underprint field. Two facsimile signatures of the President and General Manager are printed at bottom centre. |

| 裏面の説明 | Printed in blue intaglio throughout, the reverse is dominated by a central circular bank seal bearing a sailing vessel and the inscription "CANADIAN BANK OF COMMERCE EST. 1867", surmounted by a crowned coat of arms. Mercury, shown at left holding a caduceus, and a female allegorical figure of Plenty at right, each carrying a sheaf of wheat, jointly support the seal as flanking supporters. Large ornate "20" numerals occupy the left and right fields, and a rectangular cartouche at the bottom centre bears the word "TWENTY". The border is composed of intricate lathe-work and foliate guilloche ornament. |

The Canadian Bank of Commerce was one of several chartered banks still issuing their own notes in 1939, operating under the provisions of the Bank Act that had permitted private bank currency since Confederation. That arrangement was already dying — the Bank of Canada had opened in 1935, and the 1944 revision to the Bank Act would strip chartered banks of their right of issue entirely, phasing out all private notes by 1950. This note belongs to the last generation of chartered bank currency Canada would ever see.
The Canadian Bank Note Company in Ottawa held the contract for this series, as it did for much of the chartered bank work in the late dominion period.
